19-year old Aya Hachem was mistakenly shot dead while she was on her way to a Lidl supermarket when she was hit by one of several shots fired from a vehicle near her home in Blackburn, Lancashire, on Sunday.
Three men aged 39, 33, and 36 continue to be questioned on suspicion of her murder after their arrests on Monday.
Police believe Miss Hachem was not the intended target of the broad daylight attack which took place on a busy town center main road.
The Lebanese-born teenager, a second-year student at the University of Salford, died in hospital a short time after emergency services were called to the scene in King Street at around 3 pm.
On Tuesday, Lancashire Police said a post-examination showed she died from a single gunshot wound to the chest.
Senior Investigating Officer Det Supt Andy Cribbin said: ‘Our determination to find who was responsible for the death of Aya continues and we have a large team of detectives working on the inquiry.
